Guideline 6 of the IFRC PSEA Manual
Taking steps to ensure that our personnel do not pose any risk to the people we serve, or to other personnel, is crucial. That’s why we have screening measures in place that start before someone is selected to work or volunteer with the Red Cross and Red Crescent and continue throughout their appointment. Screening personnel for PSEA applies to everyone in an organization.
